When powered up the PS and CPU fans spin, I hear the hard drive spin, the DVD drive has power and ejects if the button's pressed, but I don't get any video. I figure it has to be the board, the cpu or the ram. I tested the ram on another PC and it was ok, and tested it's on the PC in question(same thing). I thought the mobo didn't support the CPU as it wasn't listed on their site so I swapped for a different mobo that does list it and same thing.

Do you think it's the cpu? Or is the ram not compatible with either of the boards I tried but is on the one I tested with? Or what? I'll check if the video can be turned off on the board...
